REJECTED

Episode 8

meanwhile Catherine was getting ready to go home to get a few things for raya and Brian promised to look after her, just as she reached to the door, Brian called her back when he was standing by the nurse desk,

Catherine, is everything alright

Brian, yeah everything is ok. I wanted to ask if you can go on a second date with me at valentine day next week.

Catherine, I don't know, raya needs me

Brian, she will be fine, am sure by then she will be home with you trust me.

Catherine. ok ok it's a second date then.

when she turned to leave she saw a tall figure dressed in a fine suit, the way he walked and his presence that gave a king like feeling. his hair styled neatly, he went through the door into his black car,Catherine only saw the back and side of the man and she was sure it was HIM , the man she was trying to hide from, the man that brought so much love and hate in her life although the other part of her mind was trying to convince her that it's impossible for him to be here especially at the hospital when there are a lot of big hospitals in A city, she didn't realize that her face turned pale and she was frozen in one place until Brian shook her and asked if she was ok, but she went in a hurry to her car. when she drove by drive way she saw a woman standing by the door to her house. it seems kim had found out where she stayed.

Catherine, what are you doing at my house.

Kim,I came to your Cafe and Jerry said you took little raya to the hospital so I figured you will be back and I brought some sweets and a get well soon teddy bear for her.

Catherine, I thought when you fine out the truth, you will be Long gone from here and would stop making purchases from my cafe.

Kim, no Catherine I really am sorry and really want to be friends with you

Catherine, are you coming in

Kim, epee , so where is raya?

Catherine, she was admitted so I ca e to pick up some stuff for her.

Kim, oh no am sorry

Catherine, yeah she has the fifth disease buts it's not serious they said she will be out less than a week.

Kim, oh wow look at her baby pictures. she was really cute, she still is a cute one, I don't see any photos of her dad?

Catherine, ah yes , it's a sharp pain and the memories still hurt so I took them down and packed then in a photo album somewhere in the attic , but raya has a picture of him.

Kim, oh okay her room is amazing did you design it?

Catherine, ah yeah Patricia and her son justine helped.

Kim, the kid justine from the cafe

Kim, yeah I should get back to the hotel my husband might get worried

Catherine, send my greetings to him.

Kim. kiss little raya for me , will visit her soon

Catherine, yeah I will and thanks for coming.

Kim, sure bye

after Kim left Catherine hoped she was not following the conversation Because she almost exposed herself, she got in her car and went back to the hospital, while kim went back to the hotel she met Claire, Kevin and Christina in the lobby she greated them and went in the elevator to her suit, she found Jackson on the laptop in a meeting and as soon as he saw her he put it down and welcomed her to sit on the bed to discuss about something he had been thinking of

Jackson, honey I have been thinking we have been here for over a week now and since we got married we have been moving here and there building on what our parents have and we don't even have a home. so I was thinking what if we purchase a house here in B city something nice and simple where we can come to re even move to if we want it's a nice idea right.

Kim, oh honey that's so nice. I would really love to but work and the companies.

jackson,that's is not a problem we can be working and come he4e for vacation or just to have free time to ourselves, weekends and all. it's an hour drive from city A.

Kim, okay okay I agree do you have any ideas

Jackson, here earlier I was making a few calls and I found a house just almost outside town with a great neighborhood and it's just 8 houses from where Catherine stays.

Kim, oh God wow love thank you so much oh and speaking of Catherine her daughter is in the hospital she contacted a virus from school

Jackson, oh no is she okay?

kim,yeah she is fine it's just that I went to Catherine's house and I didn't see any pictures of rayas dad.

Jackson, maybe she is still in grief

Kim, no baby listen, last time she said that after the Miller family kicked her out she ran off with her lover but Today she said Patricia met her at the gas station the day she arrived here.

Jackson, okay soo my wife is turning form business woman to detective now

Kim, no look she didn't mention that she came with her lover

Jackson, maybe she forgot

Kim, no something doesn't add up, her story I think she is lying and I want to find out what she is hiding since she won't tell me I need you to help me

Jackson, no! no! no! I came here to finish the mall project and not be a detective, honey if she doesn't want us to know the we should respect her decision

Kim, yeah I know but

Jackson, I know you want so badly for them to reconcile and if they had a kid it would change many things but look david will be engaged to Christina soon and Catherine already said that she had a lover even though I don't believe what the miller's said but it's her words

Kim, okay fine , I won't meddle in , it's their business, let's go have dinner.

Jackson knew that Kim would not give up so easily so all that's was left is it support his wife anyway he could , they went to the hotels restaurant and saw Claire and Kevin already having dinner , they sat with them ordered and talked a bit about business and told them about the house they bought Kevin was happy for them and that they would finally leave the choi family house but Claire wasn't really happy at least she tried to pretend to be happy for them, where is Christine I swe her earlier, kim looked around , she went over to David's villa.
